Now picture this...


Several weeks from now, this little potage will be filled, yes, filled I tell you, with French mesclun, baby arugula, sugar snap peas, green peas, and Italian salad mix. Doesn't look like much right now, but I have faith that all the teeny seeds I sowed a few days ago will bear much veggies. (We had to enclose it this year to protect it from very inquisitive chickens, who have no qualms whatsoever about digging up and eating all the precious seed I have sown)

Here is sweet Twiggy, taking time out of her very busy day, to lay me a beautiful, tiffany blue egg.

Not sure what perennial this is...it will be clearer in the next few weeks, but...
IT'S GREEN!!!!!
And that's all I care about right now.
Pin It!

Cyn, your Veggie patch looks just wonderful. Oh I can almost imagine freshly picked greens again.
Oh and the perennial? I think it's an iris. We'll see soon enough won't we?
